Hungary vs Denmark prediction

After a bad start that saw them give up consecutive six-point games and lose to both Germany and the USA, Hungary finally got on the board last time out, beating Kazakhstan 4-2 and taking full advantage of facing an easier opponent on paper than the previous two. No doubt the Hungarians will be hoping to use this as a springboard to go on a winning run, with Denmark next up.

From a Denmark perspective, they also defeated Kazakhstan in their most recent match, winning by a score of five points to one. Neither of these two nations are the strongest defensively, but the Danes do look to have more pop within their offense on the ice, scoring four more points than Hungary across the group stage so far. With home advantage in their favour as well, consider backing Denmark to edge this one.

Hungary vs Denmark tip: Denmark to win
